[Bug]: excessive CPU usage with playtools - Master Duel - M1 Pro

[josepheiba]

Describe the bug

While playing Master Duel, it runs fine, but It uses too much cpu and mac is getting hot, and the fans are audible. The Mac do not get that hot when I play the Steam version of Master Duel, or Resident Evil Games. If i uninstall playtools, cpu usage is much better and mac is not getting hot... but the game resolution and ratio is unplayable without playtools.

Steps to reproduce

Install Master Duel and run it.

Expected behaviour

tested it on both 3.1.0 and nightly Version 3.1.0 (1063). on Sequoia 15

Same here on macOS Sequoia 15, Mac Mini M4, PlayCover ver. 3.1.0 (856). Only happens when PlayTools is injected, and it eats up to 50% Performance core with nearly 60% of system kernel time usage in that.
